Does anyone know if the FraimLite shelves can be purchased as individual units? Based on the measurements on the website it seems I can fit a base shelf and two additional 150mm shelves in an open cabinet space I have in my room. I’ve heard a standard setup is 4 shelves which would not work in my space.
If not, can anyone recommend a fully modular solution?
All Fraim and Fraim Lite shelves can be bought individually, so you just order a base and however many shelves you want, of whatever heights you need. No need for a full set.
The same applies to Isoblue and as far as I’m aware, most other racks.
Speaking of Fraimlite. I’m considering a rack for my devices and have also been looking at other serious brands. My budget is not for Fraim.
I have 5 boxes plus a turntable.
So I probably need 6 shelves in Fraimlite quality. The only difference between Fraim and Lite is the glass panels on Fraim. So I assume that my boxes will be placed directly on the wood in the Lite version?

The full Fraim had different shelves, as well as a double layer base, so it’s not just the glass and balls. I wouldn’t go that high and have a TT on top; two lower stacks side by side would be much better. I’d also look at Isoblue, which will get you very close to full Fraim SQ at a Lite price.
If you google Isoblue hifi you will find them. They don’t seem to have a dealer list on the website so you may have to email them. Forum rules prevent me posting a link here.
In terms of performance they are all the same. There’s a more expensive range called Special Branch which uses higher quality veneers and looks nicer, but the shelves are otherwise the same.
